Well, i went into this completely blind. Had no clue this movie existed. I can tell you that this movie is really hard to follow. I wanted to watch this with subs from my country, but sadly i found it only with English subs, so it was really, REALLY hard to follow. But what i followed was pretty good.
This movie never got boring, maybe a tiny bit, but for the most part it's really sharp. I can tell you that the movie has a clear message: A King that's being influenced with God and Evil. The King (who was said to be mentally ill at times, not 100% sure bout that), only followed the Diabel, while the Nun the Good, he just ignored her, and she was there for nothing.
This movie depicts in a very brutal, way how it is to be forgotten. This King has been sentenced to death, and when he escaped, nobody really cared for him: His wife re-married, his mother is a prostitute, his sister barely cared, it's like when you get locked up for such a long time, when people forget about you, they just dont care anymore.
Also, what we forget, is how many people have been killed because of the Diabel, even though these people did not care, the King killed people that nothing to do with being forgotten, like the Turkish woman, and the other actor... He killed people that had nothing to do with this, and then he Diablo forced him into self destruction, untill in the end, when the Devil shows it's true face.
This is an amazing movie, i actually wanted to give it 10/10, but it's just too difficult to follow. I think this movie was inspired based on 1971 The Devils, they seem kinda similar, and i loved 1971 The Devils, this is kinda in the same boat. I think this is the first movie ive seen from Poland, and it's worth watching.
I enjoyed what was served, even though i think i didn't pick up on a lot of what was being said, but still pretty well made movie for what it is. A lot of people are complaining over bad acting, and bad "directing". No, to everything seemed to work pretty well. And as i say 100 times, the MOST important thing when it comes to movies, is the plot, this had a strong plot, and i enjoyed it.
